Jammie Boy’s Last Stunt
Blake Farenthold, the disgraced congressman from South Texas, told us that he was going to serve out his term after resigning for being a sexist pig and a real pervert.
He lied.
Of course he also lied about repaying the $84,000 in taxpayer money used to settle the lawsuit brought by his former legislative aide.
So, he lies.
His new plan is to leave congress early enough to trigger a special election prior to the big playing-for-keeps contest that happens in November. That would benefit Republicans, who could then run their candidate coming off a much publicized win.
Another benefit would be that a special election costs the taxpayers about the same as landing on Boardwalk with three hotels. Farenthold loves spending your money.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
As shabby an indescribable as that it, wasn’t it expected of this waste of DNA?
1How can we get that picture up on the Jumbotron in Times Square? It would show the world what the Republicans are:
2The Immoral Majority.
Of course he was lying-he’s a Republican isn’t he?
3Can they refuse to hold a special election on the basis that Congress apparently isn’t going to do squat for the rest of the year after they pass this continuing resolution, except sit on their butts and suck in money for reelection? (with apologies to those in Congress who would LIKE to do something but can’t because they’re not in charge)
4Good ol’ Jammieboy lies like a slimy flounder on a stinky Aransas Bay* mudflat, it’s genetic. He finally got gigged** and he’s flopping around.
(yeah, flounder exude slime, like many fish, and those mudflats can have a bad smell, I’ve wade-fished them enough)
This is a kind of Machiavellian move though, typical ‘democracy-lovin’ Rethug.
* There are dozens of estuarine bays in the Coastal Bend TX-27 district, I could pull up some nav charts (NOAA 11307, 11313, 11309, 11314, 1117A, etc) on my OpenCPN and list them– just did.
5** One meaning of “gigged” is a fishing technique, using a long spear, usually with three points/trident, and spotting a flounder on the shallow bottom, then spearing it; can be done wade-fishing, or from a shallows/flats boat (the commercial flounder fishermen use a special flats boat with a straight bow and platform, bright lights, and multiple spears and nets).
It’s like the two guys arguing in the old Miller Lite commercial (taste great! less filling!), except the beer drinkers actually made more sense than Blake’s:
Less Government!
6More Elections!
Less Government!
More Elections!
I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a subpoena in the future for Duckie Boy. He’s just plain corrupt.
7Does anyone know when or if Dist. 27 will be changed due to the ruling of illegal gerrymandering. I live in this area and hope that sometime in the future my vote will count.
8I am going to celebrate when the time comes that I never have to look at that photo of that execrable glob of human flesh in the ducky jammies again. I always feel like I need to totally fumigate my entire building afterwards.
